Jodhaa Akbar was big the US due to quality or due to Ash-HR casting coup and the exotic royal theme?

I said because if quality mattered then why didn't Munnabhai MBBS do some significant business abroad? Why was CDI lower than other conventional SRK films despite being a brilliant film?

Also, if quality is criteria how did Akshay's Singh is Kinng strike big overseas? (I think it did well due to Akki-Kat and the mainstream hero playing sardar)

Akshay Kumar suddenly rose up the ranks in overseas market from 2007. Did films like Namaste London and playing NRI help his rise abroad?

So only intelligent people lives in USA and UK? Aunties are intelligent too? Wait so romantic sagas are as mindless as masalas.

On a side note agneepath was masala

Brainless or mindless? It's a subjective matter. Coz Housefull 2 did better than Agneepath overseas

Dabangg 2 and Bol Bachchan also did really well this year which you would call mindless ? Explain? Oh and the mega ETT too.

Explain. Oh and JTHJ had a very intelligent too i guess.

Not every thing that has script is gold or every thing you might call Brainless is rubbish.

It's not a war

I'm kindly throwing a debate about how specific movie choices make people intelligent

It's quite sad to put class on movies.

Many lawyers, doctors, teachers were sitting through masala like Dabangg, RR, D2, BB etc, and they were thoroughly enjoying it. It's just some people that thinks films are made educate or give social awareness messages.
